I am running a win2k pro. I just used lite serve to create my ftp server.
After creating it i tried logging in with my normal ftp client from my home network it was working alright but when i tried to log in from over the WAN i get a message saying "windows can't acces the flie or folder make sure you have type the correct file name or folder and you have set permissions to access the file or folder.I have already set full access to the ftp folder but over the internet i get this problem not over the LAN.

I am behind a router i have forwared the default port number 21 and my zone alarm firewall has set to allow ftp access but let me just ask do i need to give the alg.exe acces to the net. One more thing if i create a account on the ftp program do i need to create the same extact account locally on the pc in order for the user to access ,But i just can't figure out what is wrong can someone help me..
